  • DE 10 2014 216 414 A1 also discloses a household appliance. This has the disadvantage that the user must still frequently switch the focus of his/her attention between the rotary knob and the display field when operating the household appliance.
  • a haptic operating element for a household appliance said operating element having a display field, characterized in that the display field is configured at least partially as a touch-sensitive screen.
  • This operating element has the advantage that a user no longer has to divert his/her attention away from the haptic operating element to actuate or activate a setting selected by the haptic operating element, in order to operate the household appliance.
  • the screen here allows a context-related display. Confirmation or activation is achieved by touching the touch-sensitive part (specifically the touch-sensitive screen) of the display field. This generally allows particularly clearly structured, focused and context-related appliance operation, resulting in improved operability.
  • a haptic operating element refers in particular to an operating element that a user can take hold of for its operation.
  • the haptic operating element can be a component of the household appliance.
  • the operating element can then be considered to be a household appliance operating element.
  • the touch-sensitive screen can also be referred to as a sensor screen or touchscreen. It can be a capacitive sensing screen for example.
  • the touch-sensitive screen is in particular a pixel-type screen.
  • the touch-sensitive screen can be a monochrome (e.g. black and white) or color screen.
  • the entire display field is configured as a touch-sensitive screen. This provides a particularly large and versatile touch-sensitive surface.
  • a remaining part of the display field is configured as a screen that is not touch-sensitive. This is a particularly economical model.
  • the haptic operating element can essentially be an operating element that is connected in a fixed manner to the household appliance.
  • the operating element is an operating element that can be removed from the (remainder of the) household appliance. This improves child safety and makes it easier to clean and operate due to the variable selection of its positioning point.

  • a screen fixed relative to the appliance is a screen which is attached in a fixed manner to the household appliance.
  • the screen fixed relative to the appliance can be arranged in particular on a front face, in particular on a front panel, of the household appliance.
  • the screen fixed relative to the appliance can be a touch-sensitive screen or touchscreen but is not restricted to such.
  • the screen fixed relative to the appliance is configured at least visually in the same manner as the display field of the operating element. This can mean in particular that the display field of the operating element and the screen fixed relative to the appliance have the same resolution per unit of surface and/or the same color depth. This means that the display field and screen fixed relative to the appliance appear particularly uniform, clear and easy to read.
  • the haptic operating element is a removable operating element and can be positioned or fastened in just one predefined position on the household appliance.
  • the haptic operating element can be positioned or fastened in a number of positions on the household appliance. This means that a user can select a preferred position for operating the household appliance for example.
  • the content displayed in both displays i.e. in the display field of the operating element and on the screen fixed relative to the appliance
  • the household appliance has a control facility for operating the touch-sensitive display field and the screen fixed relative to the appliance. This allows the displays of the display field and the screen fixed relative to the appliance to be coordinated in a particularly simple manner.
  • the control facility can be an operating module of the household appliance, which is linked for example to a central control facility of the household appliance. However the control facility can also be the central control facility.
  • control facility is designed to set up or configure at least one virtual sensor surface or sensor key as an operating element of the household appliance on the touch-sensitive screen of the operating element. This allows particularly clearly structured, focused and context-related appliance operation.

  • This provides a clear operating structure, which allows the user to operate the household appliance solely by way of the haptic operating element, at least in the displayed view.
  • a view can refer in particular to a view of the display field and the screen fixed relative to the appliance associated with a specific point in a menu structure (menu view).
  • the screen fixed relative to the appliance is a touch-sensitive screen
  • it can also be used to operate the household appliance.
  • the household appliance in particular its control facility, is designed to coordinate a graphic appearance on the display field of the operating element with a graphic appearance of the screen fixed relative to the appliance.
  • Coordination can refer for example to function, content and/or graphic coordination, for example by means of supplementary functions and/or content as well as by means of a coordinated graphic display.
  • the haptic operating element can be positioned on the household appliance in such a manner that it at least partially covers the screen fixed relative to the appliance. This can mean that only part of the haptic operating element covers the screen fixed relative to the appliance. In another development the haptic operating element can be positioned in its entirety on the screen fixed relative to the appliance.
  • the household appliance in particular its control facility, is designed to coordinate a graphic appearance on the display field of the operating element with a graphic appearance of the sub-region of the screen fixed relative to the appliance, which is covered by the operating element.
  • the household appliance in particular its control facility, is designed to display the sub-region of the screen fixed relative to the appliance, which is covered by the operating element, on the display field of the operating element.

  • the operating panel 5 can be integrated in the oven door 2 .
  • the oven 1 also has a haptic operating element that can be positioned on the front in the form of a rotary knob 7 , which can be fastened magnetically.
  • the rotary knob 7 has a basic button shape or cylinder shape, a rear face serving as a bearing surface and a front face being visible to a user.
  • a lateral surface serves as a grip surface for rotating the rotary knob 7 .
  • Part of the rotary knob 7 covers the screen 6 and the other part projects downward beyond the screen 6 .
  • the rotary knob 7 has a touch-sensitive screen or touchscreen 8 on its front face.
  • the touchscreen 8 takes up almost the entire front face and therefore corresponds to the entire visible display field.
  • the rotary knob 7 can have a data interface 9 a , which transfers data wirelessly, with the oven 1 .
  • the data interface 9 a can be a radio interface, an interface that transfers data inductively, etc.
  • the rotary knob 7 can also have a data processing unit 9 b (e.g. a microcontroller, ASIC, FPGA or another electronic unit) for exchanging data with the oven 1 by way of the data interface 9 a and for operating the touchscreen 8 .
  • a data processing unit 9 b e.g. a microcontroller, ASIC, FPGA or another electronic unit
  • the oven 1 also has a control facility 10 for operating the touchscreen 8 and the screen 6 .

If the user actuates the sensor key, it contracts to a line in the vertical direction and then expands back to the circular shape. When it has expanded, a different word is shown, for example “Pause”.
  • This animation simulates the rotation of a disk or coin, with a different word on its two sides, thereby showing different functions for activation.
